the form you're talking about, it's 90-22. and the f-bar is not part of the tax filing. it's done by june 30th each year without extension. so in the 2009 tax return itself, you would not find this form whether he filed it or not. and the amnesty is a little bit misleading. because the amnesty still required everybody to pay 20% at that time on the first amnesty program of the highest value of their account. so although the amnesty was from criminal prosecution, there was a fairly heavy tax burden on the highest value of the account. but you would not see that in his 2009 actual filing. the f-bars were not part of the tax return. >> and what reasons are there, steven, to put money in the cayman islands other than, as paul ryan used to say, to hide your money. >> there are investment opportunities that could be available elsewhere. frankly, he's paying tax on all of his income, so the fact that the money is in the cayman islands, he's created a different trust there to protect it from possibility liability but all the income gets reported whether it's in the cayman island

our view is obama has done a poor job. everything he did that was wrong was when he had overwhelming democratic support. it's appropriate to ask now, how did that work out? and then he added this. he said, quote, i'm pretty confident the american people are not going to go back to 2009 and 2010 and let the other side have total control of the government. total control of the government? think about that for a second. mitch mcconnell is talking about democrats controlling the senate and the white house and democrats controlling the house. i mean, few people other than nancy pelosi and other house democrats are talking about the democrats conceivably taking control of the house. but mitch mcconnell seems to think that's a possibility. as the republican leader in the senate, mitch mcconnell is most concerned with senate seats and that's what he's backstopping here when pitching to donors. but the pitch he's making to republican donors is amazing. he's pitching that republicans need to work hard and collect your hard-earned mo

that's why obama picked biden. candidate obama had a tendency to ramble in the debates, got better during mccain one on ones. while romney did well in this season's gop debates, had rough performances, bet you $10,000 he did. romney performances, the unspoken body language that the camera captured, they were brutal against ted kennedy. ivy league will enjoy biden versus ryan more. trust me. >>> turning back to the brand new battleground polls. there's a different pattern emerging, president obama is ahead in new hampshire, tighter in nevada and north carolina. joining me, director of the marist poll. good to see you in person. >> welcome to the home of the new york yankees. >> you're going to blow the playoff run. >> i am worried. >> we want the beltway series in washington. we have been looking at this as sort of the generic, the general all nine states. what is your take away? >> i think what you're seeing is a very big difference when obama is 45, 46 as months ago when everything was 44, now he gets to 48, 49, 5

barack obama is 6'1" and 175. romney is a little more plotting as a fighter, a little bit more mechanical. obama perhaps a little lighter but maybe not punching quite as hard. if you're looking for a fight scorecard, look at those metrics to start. one other thing that i think is important to remember in this. you talk about the advantage of presidency, but there's a disadvantage, which is a rhetorical strength barack obama didn't have the last time he debated. anything he says about a foreign country can be judged in diplomatic terms when he talks about issues and congress. these are blow up. he knows too much in a way and has to figure out how to bring back the knowledge set to what he says publicly both from a legal and sort of intelligence standpoint and also just from a good politicliolitical standpoi. >> he knows too much. >> jonathan, i think i can count on you to be objective with me. some would argue that obama has been given something of a pass on his record over the past year, and this might be the firs

ahmadinejad -- president obama has an economic crisis in his hand. you have a situation where you have three players and only one player is in the strong position. it is, again, something that the opposition is going to use against president obama over and over again. as long as mr. romney is not asked what he would do instead. he's never really communicated what he would do instead. he's in the happy position where he can criticize without being challenged on what he's doing. >> he said similar actions and similar decisions to the president, which has been noted by many people. he hasn't said anything different than what the current administration is saying here. >> that's right. governor romney has, in fact, endorsed what the obama administration's policy is on iran in terms of building international pressure on the regime to come clean about its nuclear program. i want to push back on the idea that president obama has not been good to israel. the united states has spent more than $10 billion in military assistance over the past three-plus years to
